Useful combination
Status

Undefined

Displays the route of a ferry on sea.

route=ferry

Please remember to connect each end of the ferry route to a way on land. Do not combine two different parts of the route when approaching land. The ways should be drawn like the letter V and not like the letter Y with the bottom connected to a way on land. This is important to ensure functional routing. The connection should be on a node shared with the coastline.

A very simplified way should do. No need to use every point from your gps.

Restriction tags can be used to mark the type of ferry, such as:

+ access=*
+ hgv=no
+ motorcar=yes
+ foot=yes
